just unlocked Thrawn, Yoda and Palpatine how to build those guys with the modifier stuff ?

Palpatine is full Potency ?

You can find suggestions on swgoh.gg for each character
https://swgoh.gg/characters/emperor-palpatine/best-mods/

Ezra, Kana, Old Ben, Ahsoka, Mace are an easy way to get Yoda unlocked quickly & have in other events.
That said, to make Yoda shine, you want him to be under Bastila at first then Revan.
So while the 5 above Jedi are easy to farm & useful for multiple events, they don't make the "Yoda" team.
You'll want to be farming the Revan Jedi requirements on the side as well.

Palpatine/Thrawn........ Both easily farmed w/ Phoenix.
Put the in the same team together.
Add Vader & Tarkin.
5th could be any of the following.......
TIE Pilot (For early Ships & useful against the R2 Event)
Royal Guard (Can tank, is free from Bronziums, & is needed for Lord Vader one day)
Snow Trooper (Also Free from Bronziums, useful on either a Veers or Iden troopers team)
Storm Trooper (Also Free from Bronziums, can Tank, not used much but can be under Veers or Iden in a pinch)

My 5th was TIE Pilot because this was pre-Geo's being so good on the ground so I skipped their ships.
Now days on a new account I'd probably do RG or Snow.

Mara is really good.
I just don't think of her as a "new player" character since she will be 100% Farm (nothing free) and is a fairly slow farm.
She is also required for StarKiller event. So not at all a bad option. Just going to be a bit slow.
Probably less useful in the short term to Open R2 but will rock long term once she is part of a full 7* team.

Un-Masked Kylo is a great early character, can Tank for Palp easy enough & comes in the same node as his ship which is very useful to have up at 4+* by the time you open fleet at L60.

Masked Kylo? Meh, he's good, but I waited on him till I was ready to push for SLKR as my first GL.

Now my questions are on Fleet arena: whats the best team to aim on that feature ?
Just saw the top 10 and 9 out 10 have 2 separatist and Bossk
they are all at least gear 9 or better, so how impactfull is to gear the pilots ?
I should invest on them over the rest ?

F2P named off 4 of the best ships you can get at your level.

The 3 Geos + Bossk are a must for a DS Fleet under Tarkin early game.

A good 5th ship, as I mentioned in TIE Silencer in the same node as Kylo-U

You want to focus DS early in fleet because that event opens up Zeta mats 3x a week so getting those open sooner is better.
Once you have that event maxed & are simming 6 Zetas each week, then you can focus on LS under Ackbar.

Other DS Ships you'll want to look at are the rest of the BH, anything Crewless (TIE Bomber, Hyena Bomber, Vulture) or anything that is a req for a later event.
Really, I can't think of a single DS ship that isn't a must have at some point.
Last place is probably Sith Assassin fighter but even that one has use now that its a Req for the newest coming ship for D.Revan.

Key is getting 7 of them up & running asap under Tarkin to max him & then from their spreading out to properly fill out the various DS Cap ships that you'll open up with added Empire, FO, Sep, & BH ships.


Don't bother investing in Mace ship at all.
Just do his event w/ whatever rebel ships your using under Ackbar.

Best farming plan for new players is to not farm. Pointless starting up playing a old game where you'll never catch up unless you spend money
